Production Volt spotted

Autoblog has what they claim is a picture of a production Volt. The Hill the Volt is on prevents a full view of the car but the headlights taillights and the overall shape are visible for all to see more at the link

Re: Production Volt spotted

Whoa! That looks awesome! Even just from this little bit you can tell its a great looking car. And it definitely does have a sort of futuristic look to it. Can't wait to see the whole thing

Re: Production Volt spotted

I said this on Car Lounge and I'll say it again...the side profile looks like a Charger, and the side mirrors look hideous in that chrome/aluminum color

Re: Production Volt spotted

That looks great, and as I expected, no wacky side windows of the concept. The silver rear view mirror and name plate could be great visual cues to add to its recognizability. So far this looks much better than the concept, to my eyes.

Re: Production Volt spotted

Looking fantastic! There are more photos of it if you click on the main picture at the link, much better than the ugly-ass Prius...

Re: Production Volt spotted

Someone at Autoblog posted this link to a video of Transformer 2 filming...

http://link.brightcove.com/services/...tid=1759811968

It includes The Corvette, Camaro, Beat, and Volt. So much awesomeness in one video I nearly soiled myself!

Amazing...

I haven't been this excited over a car in a long time. If only I was rich and 2010 wasn't so far away.

Re: Production Volt spotted

Wait, this is the Transformers Volt?

I am betting it isn't the same as the production model.....
